Missing Authorization in Kibana Leading to Privilege Escalation and Information Disclosure

Published Aug 13, 2026 · Updated Aug 14, 2026 · Assigned by elastic

Description

Kibana Agent Builder does not correctly verify that the requesting user holds the privileges required by a separate Kibana feature before it creates and runs a tool that invokes that feature's functionality. This allows privilege escalation and could lead to disclosure of sensitive information that the user is not authorized to read.
